ScrollsScouted the Forest for familiar faces and old friends. Spent sometime frolicked in the sun before settling in a shady patch of flowers to rest. Was joined by a particular, cute little creature (Ranore) and a lovely girl with a beautiful orange pelt (Shahla). Enjoyed the summer afternoon with them. Occasionally dashing about through the flower patch.

At first Darcy resisted her

At first Darcy resisted her attempts to get him to relax, but with a defeated sigh of air through his nose he let the pressure of her chin against his neck push his head towards the earth to nestle against her breast. His ears flicked back at the steady beating of her heart and the shushing whoosh of air being pushed from her lungs. His brows knit uncertainly at the feel of her face against his neck, smoothing his ruffled fur. She was...being almost motherly to him. Motherly. The word was foreign. To Darcy is was an idea, not an fond experience he could look back on. It made him tense...

But not for long.

His tired muscled grew fond of the idea of rest as he lay there and eventually unraveled. He shifted his body into a more comfortable position, and felt the doe beside him do the same. He would not allow her to escape him though, keeping their ribs lightly touching as their contours fit carefully around one another. The only thing that could disturb him now was a break in that contact.
“I will hold you to it,” he garbled as he fought back a yawn, her own being contagious. “We were both cowards...I hope you don't shy away from my offer as well...Maybe...maybe tomorrow we can...swap truths...”
The stag closed his eyes as he thought about what he was trying to say, but his thoughts were already growing dim and drifting.

As the tension in Darcy's

As the tension in Darcy's body began to loosen, Kumiko found herself feeling heavy. The rhythmic heaves of his breaths became a comforting lullaby soothing the doe to sleep, "Yes... Perhaps we shall..."

(Welp. I probably didn't need to respond but I felt bad if I didn't include some closer to this moment.)

Finally, after two days of

Finally, after two days of testing out designs, messing with layouts, and frustration.... I finally complete a CSS design that well.... is good enough for now...

It's not as elaborate as I want, but after my last design messed with comments, I just got fed up enough with it to stop. So for now, I'm going with this.

Good work with this, the bio

Good work with this, the bio is looking great, very pretty CSS, simple but it's pretty and organized, I like it!
Kumiko's picture

Thanks. I'm glad someone

Thanks. I'm glad someone thinks so; I'm still not pleased with it. I really like the design or Herla's biography. It's so clean and I do like the cool (temperature cool) colors used for it.

Well...Time to get myself prepared for doing Cypher's biography soon. I just need to find a background image that's site appropriate.

I really like the transparency and the background image you used is perfect for Kumiko ^^ The green links are a bit hard to read but otherwise it looks good!

Sorry for the mess things

Sorry for the mess things where in last night, I feel that Herla wasn’t the best of company to poor Kumiko, chasing around after her unruly teenage fawn and working herself into hysterics about his chosen company.
Kumiko's picture

It's ok, Herla. Kumiko wanted

It's ok, Herla. Kumiko wanted to keep some space between them since I don't think they've ever been formally introduced to each other and she could gather that there was some "family" trouble. She felt the need to keep an eye on Herla since she knows how dare she is to Darcy, but Kumiko didn't want to get too involved with personal affairs.

Ah I thought she must have been familiar to Darcy. It was fun playing around her, though I met her right when I was going to bed. Heh.

I'm sorry for Nightmare's

I'm sorry for Nightmare's confusing behavior XD Him and Darcy are still not quite sure of each other to say the least and he was unsure of approaching at all XD

"Your efforts are insignificant! I carry you to your deaths!"
Kumiko's picture

Heh it's fine. She knew about

Heh it's fine. She knew about therir scruff and Herla seemed a bit uneasy, but Kumiko was fine with meeting a new deer. So it was confusing for her too.

Nightmare was interested but

Nightmare was interested but he was uneasy around Darcy and Herla due to that little moment hah XD He was afraid of scaring everyone XD

"Your efforts are insignificant! I carry you to your deaths!"

You'll learn quickly that

You'll learn quickly that Kumi's kinda like a puppy. Unless you give her a reason to not like you, she'll like you.

She's not a very distinct character, which has always been something about her I haven't liked.
Graveyard's picture

As intimidating as Nightmare

As intimidating as Nightmare is, he's easy to get along with until someone decides to push the wrong buttons with him. But even then he's normally really placid and doesn't do much until things really warrant it.

His fluff is the best fluff around though! Everyone seems to love making a nest out of it haha XD

"Your efforts are insignificant! I carry you to your deaths!"

Huge overhaul going on here.

Huge overhaul going on here. Not only has the layout changed.... a lot... But much about Kumiko is changing too. Though at the core, she's still the same, minus the fight she got into today. Her background has been officially been updated and I'm debating on giving her some knowledge regarding Shinto-based rituals.

That is still up in the air though.
Kumiko's picture

Alright, everything is

Alright, everything is officially done. Other than a few issues with the CSS, this is pretty much how she's going to be now.

I decided to give her three rituals to perform. One purifies land to prevent evil spirits from forming after a violent act, like a huge fight or a place where a deer had died. Another purifies individuals of their sins. The final one is a memorial ceremony similar to the floating lanterns in order to bring comfort to mourning families.

"Hum...it strange. I should fear, but I do not. You are different from others who are shaman. Perhaps we know each other from past, before forest."

"I could say the same about

"I could say the same about you. A demon, you are? I should be terrified and should feel the need to purify you. However, I see no need to. A calming - yet mysterious - aurora seems to surround you."

"Demon is I, yes. Oni, as you

"Demon is I, yes. Oni, as you say. Many have feared me, many shamans. Many hurt me, but you do not. You different, gentle. Good soul...calming, yes. I thank you for not hurting me as well. Ah, it sting. Burns the flesh. Hum...yes, you are good."

The twilight doe's ears flickered at his voice before giving a warm smile, "You are welcome. I see no need to harm a passive spirit."

So, as much as I liked the previous CSS design and as wonderful as it was for Unplugged and others to put it together... It felt too cluttered. I went with a much simpler, cleaner design.

I've also been trying to update her relations section. So if you in anyway, shape, or form have come in contact with her and want to be included, let me know.

♥, that awkward moment when you realise you've been really late to track something, and prolong it further because you're awkward like that.

She's such a darling ;u;

Awww well thank you.

Sadly, I need to sleep since I have to drive out of town for the holiday tomorrow. Do take care. It was a pleasure getting some quality time with Talla though before bed. <3
